After working on it and stressing out about it for some months, I
decided to take a break and scratch some other itches. I'll return to
PEP 649 soon, and I have every intention of having the PEP done and the
prototype done well in advance of 3.10b1--worry not.
Thanks for checking in,

Hi Larry,
Can you give us a status update for your PEP 649? I don't recall
reading anything about it in the past few weeks. I am super excited
about this solution to the problem (even if there are a few issues to
work through) and I think it will provide better backwards
compatibility than the current plan for Python 3.10 (PEP 563, from
__future__ import annotations, causing all annotations to be stringified).
If we don't get this into 3.10, we'd have a much more complicated
transition. There are only two more alphas before 3.10b1 gets
released! And we'd have to get this approved by the Steering Council,
which can take a few weeks (cut them some slack, they have a big
backlog). Fortunately you already have an implementation that can be
landed quickly once the PEP is accepted.
